White little bump in the corner of my eyelid.

Hello, today I had this stingy feeling at my left eye, thought it would go away. Then I looked in the mirror and I see this bump with the following characteristics :
It's white
0.75 millimeters
Seems to be hard, not liquid
It's located on the skin from left corner(where the upper eyelid meets the lower eyelid - on the inside) of my left eye
Its stingy when I blink with that eye, that kind of feeling when you get dust in your eyes.

Thank you !
Vlad

Well its not possible to make a diagnosis without examining and touching it. If it came up very quickly and is a little red and tender it is most likely infectious like a micro-stye or infected oil gland. If it came up slowly it could be a oil cyst or a chalazion. Home treatment would probably be just apply warm compresses. If it gets worse see an Eye MD ophthalmologist
